I can’t add much to what you said as I concur on everything. I’d like to throw google in the mix also as those scumbags facilitate so much scam on their search engine and then ignore when informing them. They need an additional suit against them making them liable. But as @scamterminator2021 so expertly noted yesterday, our gov dirt dogs do nothing!

Thank you, @Jhawk and @Tillianne! I am glad that you are seeing a big picture, as well! It’s the greed of telecom combined with utter ineptitude of our authorities that created this nasty mess!
I’ll tell you what, I know people in Sweden, Germany, Finland and few other EU nations. They almost never get robocalls. Do you know why? Simple: NO spoofing is allowed and NO foreigners can purchase their domestic numbers (unless they go through rigorous and demanding process of establishing local offices in said nations). Period. Consequently NO Indian, Filipino, Nigerian or Pakistani criminals pollute their telecom industry with their imbecilic nonsense. And I agree! I want NONE of their poisonous bullshit in the US either and they have absolutely NO reason to call an average American person.
Here are some great articles from a respected industry analyst:

Hi. It has been awhile since anyone made posts on this thread. Do you happen to have any updates on our lovely “friends” at Onvoy? How is it going with your case?
